Toby and I (Drebin) are planning to go back up to the mountains to continue our volunteer efforts.  We are planning on going to Burnsville – Yancey County – one of the hardest hit areas of the mountains (30 inches of rain fell in the southeastern portion).

I have a contact in Burnsville who I went to high school with, and she is operating a supply hub there with a lot of local connections (Facebook and Rebuilding Hollers).  Like in every situation in the mountains, we won’t know what we are doing until the week of – it could be anything from cleaning homes/yards, removing debris/mud, sorting supplies, cooking, etc. so please be open to what’s needed. 

We are considering getting a cabin and going up maybe Friday night through Sunday.  Anyone could join for the whole weekend, just a day or whatever you are willing to do.

With all of this, I need to get an idea of how many will be able to join us so they can know where to put us – please add your name to this list whether you are HC or SC.

Thanks for being willing to serve our neighbors!
